Ingredients

(Servings: 4)

• 1 lb 93/7 ground turkey

• 1 bag frozen onions and peppers

• 3 avocados

• 1 lime

• 1 bunch cilantro

• 2 Tbsp olive oil - My favorite is Kosterina, get 15% off with code GRACE05737

• For the guacamole

  • 2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • red pepper flakes, to taste

• For the turkey meatballs

  • 1/2 tsp Kosher salt

  • 2 tsp onion powder

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin

Appliances & Utensils

• knife & cutting board

• 2 sheet pans

• mixing bowls

• pan/stainless steel pan & spatula

• glass containers

• measuring cups & spoons

Instructions

1. Make the turkey meatballs: In a medium bowl, combine 1 lb of 93/7 ground turkey with ½ tsp Kosher salt, 2 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp ground cumin. Mix well, then roll the mixture into small meatballs (about 12 meatballs total)

2. Prepare the sweet potato fries: Confirm baking temperature on back of bagged fries. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spread 1 bag of frozen sweet potato fries onto a sheet pan and bake for 20 - 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

3. Cook the turkey meatballs: On an additional sheet pan, add the turkey meatballs and spread the frozen onions and peppers around them. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes, checking to ensure doneness prior with an internal temperature thermometer.

4. Prepare the guacamole: Wash the avocados, limes, and cilantro. Remove cilantro from stems and chop finely, about 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro. In a small bowl, mash 3 avocados with the juice of 1 lime, 2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, ½ tsp salt, and red pepper flakes to taste. Stir in 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro for extra flavor.

5. Serve: To serve, layer the sweet potato fries with the onion pepper mix. Top with ground turkey meatballs and a scoop of guacamole. Add additional cilantro if preferred and enjoy!

Pro Tip: To keep guacamole fresh after making it, keep the pit and place it in the center of the bowl. Additional lime juice will also help hold the flavor.

For vegetarian/vegan dietary preferences: Cook a can of black beans to top the nachos with instead of the turkey meatballs.
